Warning to Pay Attention



We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.  Since the message spoken through angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment, how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation?  This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him.  God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.  You made them a little lower than the angels you crowned them with glory and honor and put everything under their feet.  In putting everything under them, God left nothing that is not subject to them.  Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.  But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.

Prayer: God in heaven hear my prayer,
keep me in your loving care.
Be my guide in all I do,
Bless all those who love me too.
Amen.
